Whatcha' Got
I came in the door nineteen eighty four
Paint on the wall got chased by the law
Once got soul in the place full of flow
Was never given the zone had to create my own
As clean as the nose on my face that I placed on the
stone
Had to stake my claim to the thrown
Ain't no mistaken the sacred in his tone
Ali the new name by which greatness is known
Ya'll act like seeing is a new sport
Your too inexperienced your teeth are too short
Every culture has a right to passage
You wanna bypass it and sell me your practice
One for the lunch money
I dont run from you punch-drunk dummies
I invite you all to come for me
I said I'd shot hungry when it wasn't sunny
I been here long after y'all are done humpin'
Talk to me when you've done somthing
Other than swing back n' forth from hating to nut
pumping
No, all criticism isn't constructive
Some need to be destructed, your done with
And either you retire to the sideline
or imbrace this time, this rhyme with your eyes wide
open
Shit won't have to earn them accolades
A-N-T gonna take you all back to phase one
Yes Yes y'all you dont stop
Now come alive A-N-T and give me what you got
Brother Ali rock shock the house we most definitely
We bout to turn your doubt y'all
A yes yes y'all and you dont dare stop
Well come alive A-N-T and give me what you got
Brother Ali rock shocking the house we most definitely
[scratching:] (the way I feel now I just got to rock)
